Good Job Santa

The kids gave Chris & I A+ reviews on our Christmas this year. Since we have 2 teenagers & one early grade-schooler, it was a somewhat challenging trying to come up with the "perfect" gift solutions for everyone. Colin was the easiest to buy for. He'll take Legos any day. Cassie needed a new cell phone, but we knew if we got her one, that Craig would want one too. So, we bought two of the same phones in different colors. It's the new Propel phones that have the full keypad so they can text at 100 mph, cameras & mp3 players. It was a HIT! Cassie got some clothes & swim gear. Craig got camping gear (now that he's a full-fledged scout!) and some sports t-shirts (thanks G&G Beecher!)& Chargers jersey. I've been so relieved the past couple of days that the Chargers & the Longhorns both won so that he will continue to wear them out of the house. He wears the BYU shirt under his jackets.

What a fun Christmas! I bet it was such a blast opening presents with the snow and all! I miss Oregon the most around Thanksgiving and Christmas. Your kids are growing up so fast! Can't we just make time slow down a bit?

Super Photo. Thank you for your Blog and Christmas report. You are wonderful parents and handled your loooong vacation with much love and great adventures .... especially helping to shovel so many neighbors, the Church & Millgard Parking lots.
Your family will remember 2008 !!
